It’s not fair, it over-emphasizes rural votes. I would say just go to straight popular vote, but then in a really close election like we had in 2000, instead of just having a recount in say Florida we’d have to do recounts all over the country.

Maybe we’d be better off splitting into three or four smaller countries? Although I think I would hate that because I’d probably end up in a smaller country that’s more politically homogenous than this one, and I would hate its politics. My state’s politics already suck, and I assume it would choose to align with politically similar neighbors.
